“VIENNA 1900” in Vienna until June 10th 2018
The exhibition titled ‘Vienna 1900’, dedicated to the key figures of the Viennese Modernism, opens today at the Leopold Museum (Vienna, Austria). You have time to visit it until the 10th June 2018.
The museum will present selection of works by the main exponents of Viennese Jugendstil Gustav Klimt (1862–1918) and Koloman Moser (1868–1918) as well as by the ground-breaking Expressionists Richard Gerstl (1883–1908) and Oskar Kokoschka (1868–1980) in a completely new juxtaposition.
The exhibition will feature chief works by Gustav Klimt, including Death and Life (1911/15) and the 1900 lakescape On Lake Attersee, as well as Kolo Moser’s paintings, such as Venus in the Grotto (1914). These are exceptional works to understand Art Nouveau in Vienna.
The presentation will also showcase outstanding examples of design around 1900, including furniture, artisan craftwork and posters, created by the “artist of a thousand talents” and co-founder of the Wiener Werkstätte.
The Leopold Museum is home to the largest and most eminent collection of works by Egon Schiele as well as to an equally unparalleled compilation of masterpieces from Viennese art around 1900.
